wide variety of material without any problem,
occasionally it plugs. When the machine plugs,
follow this procedure to clear it:
1.
Clear the area of bystanders, especially
small children.
2.
Follow the stopping procedure and wait for
all moving parts to stop before unplugging.
3.
Pull the material out of the chipper and
shredder feed hoppers. Be sure all the
material is out and nothing is jammed or
wedged between the input opening and
the rotor.
4.
On the BXMC34B model, pull the material
out of the discharge chute. Use a stick to
poke loose any material jammed into the

chipper back and remove all the material
from the screen. Remove material from
every hole.
